Thunderbolts prepare for upcoming FFFL draft

Things are beginning to get interesting again in the the land of the Thunderbolts as the 2007 FFFL season unofficially begins with the FFFL draft this Friday night in Arlington. What exactly do the Thunderbolts have in mind? Let's take a peek into the near future, shall we?

One thing that we do know is that the T-Bolts have the best player in the league lining up at the RB-1 position in 2006 MVP LaDainian Tomlinson (left). Tomlinson set all sorts of individual and team scoring records last year as the Thunderbolts finished in third-place.
It is often said that you can never have too many running backs and even though the Bolts have the very best, you can be sure that they will be drafting a couple of running backs relatively early to complement Tomlinson.

The Thunderbolts also currently have the best 1-2 punch in the league at quarterback in Drew Brees (above) and Philip Rivers (below). There are many other teams in the league can only hope to have the kind of team leadership and productivity that Brees and Rivers will provide the Thunderbolts.

Probably the biggest question regarding the 2007 Thunderbolts is who will be on the receiving end of all those passes that Brees and Rivers are going to be throwing? Your guess is as good as mine. The Thunderbolts will obviously be looking early and often at several highly-regarded wide receivers to make life a little easier in the passing game and keep that well-oiled machine that is the Thunderbolts offense rolling along.

Defense sometimes tends to be an overlooked component in the fantasy game, but you can be sure that the Thunderbolts will be looking to add just the right combination of flash and sizzle to keep opposing offenses at bay.

Oh, yeah. They'll probably draft some kicker too.

What, you can't get a Brees picture in a Saints uniform? Or you just wanted an excuse to show more "Bolts" on the blog?

Once a Bolt, always a Bolt. Besides, I couldn't pass up the opportunity to use the throwback jersey. You can never have too many Bolts!

Hey Tony- I was just wondering if you'd write a little diddy about the poll so that we can post comments. My keepers are leading it and I didn't even vote for them. I'd like to get some discussion going.
